Love lorn poetry

<div class="IPBDescription">Poems inspired by time spent with emily.</div>All of these poems were created after Emily hugged me. Unfortunetly, words cannot fully express how it felt, and memories cannot fully revive the wonderous emotions that coursed through my body, but I can try.

I was asked by Three people in the MIRC Chatroom for Natural Selection to post these for them to read and to share with the community, so I have. Enjoy.


<span style='color:green'><i>Poem 1</span></i>
The gentle wind about us
As I feel your soft embrace..
The sun warms my skin
as your touch warms my chest..
We part,
But my heart still beats,
My breath comes slow,
And your embrace still lingers.


<span style='color:green'><i>Poem 2</span></i>
The beating of my heart
Comes swift and powerful,
Just like this love inside,
That my body strains to hold..
I long for your kiss
And the feeling of your embrace..
I long to see that love
Reflected in your face..
If only the words came as swift
As these feelings in my heart,
Perhaps then
We could obtain a start.

<span style='color:green'><i>Poem 3</span></i>
I long for your embrace,
To see your lovely face,
To hold you,
And gaze in your eyes..
Every moment,
Every day,
I would spend them anyplace,
Just to be by your side.

<span style='color:green'><i>Poem 4</span></i>
A gentle touch,
A soft embrace,
The perfect love
Reflected in your face..
Your stunning eyes
Gazing into mine..
My heart beats,
I can hardly breathe,
But I hold dear
Every second you are near.

<span style='color:green'><i>Poem 5</span></i>
You look at me,
I look at you
Time slows to a crawl..
Suddenly,
The Moment's gone..
We look away,
How shy we are..
I love you,
You love me,
That much I can easily see..
So why do we
Always look away?
Give us time,
I know someday,
It will change.

<span style='color:green'><i>Poem 6</span></i>
Gazing deeply into your eyes,
Love and tenderness I see..
I pray that one day we can be together,
Both in love,
You and me.

<span style='color:green'><i>Poem 7</span></i>
You move close,
You hug me dear,
You make me feel
Like I'm meant for here..
I love you so,
But how do you feel?
I think it's the same,
As you hold me near..
It's not that long,
But it goes on,
You move away,
But the feeling stays..
I pray it's true,
That you share the love
I feel for you.

<span style='color:green'><i>Poem 8</span></i>
Every day,
Every night,
Thoughts fill my mind
Of a life
With you by my side..
This love I feel
I hold so dear,
And I long
To hold you near.

    Very nice...perhaps you should focus your future poems on a different aspect of your feelings.

    Here's one I wrote when I was 15...

    When I look at you,
    your body explodes into light.
    Diffusing in the air around you,
    like a beacan in a world of darkness.

    You are my guide.

    I turn and follow your brightness
    You take me to the edge of the ocean
    and your reflection spreads out over the horizon...

    I wonder why you have taken me here
    the world stretches away under the sea

    I reach out to hold and kiss your face,
    but when I touch you,

    I burn away.

    I saw this one on the inside of a bathroom stall...


    Here I lay, broken hearted,
    Tried to poop, but only farted.

    Errr merk, what's that poem about?  I'm not quite sure... anyway, here's a poem I wrote in 7th Grade:

    The Small Tree

    Said the Tall Tree to the Small Tree:
    Why do you look up at me?
    What up here's so grand to see?
    Said the tall tree to the small tree

    Said the Small Tree to the Tall Tree:
    'T's not my fault, please don't blame me!
    'T's merely the way I've grown, you see.
    Said the Small Tree to the Tall Tree

    Said the Tall Tree to the Small Tree:
    My my I am truly sorry.
    I thought you thought I was sexy.
    Said the Tall Tree to the Small Tree.

    hehe, more to come if ye likes them <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Darkness is always.
    Light can only futilely
    Hide it for a while.

    The only poetry I'm actually good at is the haiku, and I generally only write them for "contests" like the one this board had a while ago.  Other than that, I have absolutely no poetic skill whatsoever <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Heh.  Mmm, gamer poetry...

    Slow down, think it out -
    This game's more than just shooting.
    Use the Force, Jedi.

    They fall like cut grass
    afraid, before me: Revenge,
    lightsaber in hand.

    Yet another patch
    Countless gameplay balances.
    Now Humans don't suck!

    Berettas blazing,
    I'm god-like, untouchable.
    Bullet-time dodge THIS.

    ***
    I _do_ write real poetry - I'm actually pretty good at it, if I do say so myself.  But I'm gonna agree with Moleculor on this one.  <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    <span style='color:green'><b> Poem 9</span></b>
    Young green grass,
    Two hands clasp,
    Two loves side by side..
    The golden sun
    Shining down,
    A cool breeze blowing..
    Two sets of eyes
    Gaze inside
    Of each other..
    Pure sweet love
    Flowing from
    Two young lovers hearts.

    <span style='color:green'><b> Poem 10</span></b>
    My heart beats
    Our eyes meet
    My love overflows..
    Can't you see
    What you mean to me?
    What shyness won't let me show?
    This love so deep,
    Your heart it seeks,
    In hope you'll let it in..
    I love you so,
    But do you know
    It's your love I need?

    *ahem*

    I see him in the shadows
    Long, Slender, Smelly
    I see him in the mirror
    Glowing Eyes, Green, Claws
    I see him in my face
    Drule, Bad Breath, Angry
    I see he is bob
    Crap! Doh! Awwwwww, Run!!!! oh wait...
    I see him making bob-love to another bob
    Nice, a Kodac Moment, Something Jedisar is really into

    Hope you feel better.

    <b>Last Train Home</b>

    The whistle resounds,
    It's time to depart
    For the only destination
    I've held in my heart.

    For so long I've waited
    To come home to you,
    My lips have forgotten
    How they love to taste you.

    Why did I wait
    For the last train home?
    Trouble myself
    To remain alone?

    Now I remember.

    It's so much sweeter
    To finally return
    When it's not something given,
    But something I earn.

    I stare out the window
    At the countryside,
    Patiently waiting
    To be at your side.

    And if I am certain
    How well I know you,
    You won't be discouraged.
    You'll feel this way too.

    Arent we so sensitive. I know how you feel Jedisar. Ain't love great. Anyway, heres my sixth grade Limerick:

    There once was a squirrel named ralph.
    Who sat on the highway by himself.
    He wandered too far and was hit by a car
    now he lives in a jar on a shelf.

    TA DA!

    Heh... I very infrequently write poetry about women... it's always so cliche.  Generally, a girl I date will get one poem from me while we're together... I have to really be inspired.  For my current girlfriend, I wrote one about waking up next to her in the morning.  (:  No, I won't post it here.

    Well, there are 2 schools of thought.  School #1: you tell her you wrote 10 poems about a *hug*, and she'll think you're a stalker and slap you with a restraining order so fast you'll get whiplash.

    School #2: you tell her you wrote 10 poems for her because of a simple *hug*, and she's blown away that such a simple act could inspire so much emotion.  She's yours.

    School #1 is the more worldly woman... school #2 is the naive or trusting one who believes in fairy tales.  If you think she's a #1, forget it.  If you think she's a #2, prove to her you really *are* Prince Charming.  (:

    ok, I'm gonna be a pain now... just a warning if you're really seriously into Jed's, er, "art."

    This is a story about a kid. we'll call him "Max." Max was 17. Max had a girlfriend. We'll call her "Katie." She was very pretty. Max had a lot of musical talent, and was in a punk rock band with some of his friends. Max wrote songs for his band about politics, and sex humor, and lots of other healthy teenage rock topics. Max was soon completely infatuated with Katie. The focus in his songwriting took a turn and soon all of what he wrote was dedicated to her. The only problem was, the songs sucked. And they were emo, which, as anyone loosely acquainted with punk (monse, kfs) knows, is pretty much cancer for the writer. Soon Max's creativity was completely drained and the band kicked him out. He became depressed, and started failing school, not going home at night, spending every waking hour near Katie. (Note: he had not "gone anywhere" with her yet; the only thing they had done was cuddle. He also had not made any moves towards "going somewhere" with her.) Katie was soon fed up with his constant melancholy attention, and dumped him. Adding insult to injury, she assumed that his lack of effort to sleep with her meant that he was a homosexual, and told every single other girl that she knew, via the Female Telepathy method. This story took place 4 years ago. Max is still single, not to mention homeless, jobless, and a heroin addict.

    Moral of the story: I'll let you guys figure this one out.

    p.s. it's a true story, by the way. Names changed, for privacy.

    what do you mean backfire?  If she likes you she will think they are so sweet and she will like u more.  If she dosent like you she will think you are crazy.  Its best just to show her the poems becuase its not like waiting will do anything.  Just say you enjoy the time you spend together and ask if she does too, or something like that.  Not 'j00 Üb3r h0t.'  If she goes for it, show her the poems.
